anything she can call "cracker" such as wheat thins, popcorn aka popcrackers, papaya

her cage primarily because we're doing some retraining

her sister Smidgen, anything that looks snake-like (ropes, hoses, belts), anything much new near her cage

she feeds me, sings with me, and plays silly games with me

loudly singing a "her song" (the one my husband and I made up about her), saying quackquack, which no one ever taught her, hanging upside down to give kisses, having trists with her lovey toys, saying cracker until she gets the kind of cracker she wants.

Hey TidbitKiwi here. Instead of Mc Bitters shouldn't it be McBiters? I know mom wants to call me things like that. I don't know why just because I jump on her shoulders and bite her neck..I mean is that any reason? She hasn't been paying enough attention to me lately and so I've started doing that again. You'd think they'd learn after a while wouldn't you? Even if she isn't my favorite person. Dad is but he's been seeing way to much of Sophie lately so I'm making sure Mom sees me. hehehe Fly on over any time.

Hello TidbitYou sure are a pretty little girl. Welcome to BC and I hope you like it here. I have a crazy little Cockatiel in my home to actually I have two crazy little Cockatiel's and they sure can be pests but Mom loves them as she loves me so I have to be good to them. I also have a lovebird that lives here and a budgie his name is Danny and he sure is good and I mean tasty good I know this cause I bit his toe and Mom told me to go home to my own cage. Now when I try to visit Danny he won't come near me, I wonder why. Well here's a vote for you...and remember us Quakers have to stick together cause we are a team. Fly by when you can for a visit.

Another V4UWelcome Tidbit, I too have an annoying cockatiel in my flock. SHE is on a managed diet, so when she is out, she knows where my pellets are and tries to help herself. (Mom has not yet gotten a good picure of her to post) Mom and I attack her when she is on my cage. SHE does not have a SILLY collar--but I do.

Well Hello TidbitKiwi here. Always a pleasure to welcome another quaker to BC. And I get to give you your first vote too!!! Wow. So glad you could join us here and hope you peck on my name and come to meet us all.
